Re: Copper Springs Special Service Area#7 (Ordinance T18-05)
Dear Susan:
I am enclosing a certified copy of Ordinance No. T18-05, entitled"An Ordinance Establishing
the Copper Springs Special Service Area of Elgin, Illinois (SSA#7) and Providing for the Levy
of Taxes for the Purpose of Paying the Cost of Providing Special Services in and for Such Area.
Said ordinance was passed by the Elgin City Council on April 13, 2005, and the ordinance was
recorded by the Kane County Recorder on July 1, 2005, as Document No. 2005K075882.
Pursuant to your request, two copies of the locater map regarding the special service area are
enclosed. One is attached to the ordinance and the other one is paper clipped at the back of the
ordinance.
As you know, the letters directed to you with the certified copies of these two ordinances
somehow were misdirected to the Kane County Recorder's office, which recorded both these
ordinances again on July 15, 2005. David Scholes stated that they would simply make a notation
on the July 15 recorded documents stating that the ordinances had previously been recorded.
Please contact me if you have questions or need anything additional. Please let me know if the
Locator Maps attached to these two ordinances meet the State of Illinois specifications.
Thank you, and I apologize for all the confusion.
Sincerely,
Dolonna"Loni"Mecum, CMC
